Thanks for rubbing salt in the wound. (Only a tiny bit serious.)
Back when mining was possible on a standard desktop computer I mined a block in my first week, and received 50 bitcoins. A couple years later, I found that bitcoins were trading at the mind-blowing sum of $1 each, and cashed in. (In my pitifully weak defense, I was really short on money at the time.)
If I had done something sensible, like sold a few each time the price went up 10x, I’d have a pile of cash and probably some bitcoins left.

Weep for me, oh ye internets.
